What about a small VB app that sits a corner that tells you info from CF
i.e. New Pm's New Reps, New Posts, Buddy's online, etc etc.
|
Wouldn't that need me to either:
a) connect (from the VB app) to CF's server directly and poll the information, or
b) have the app work through an open broswer to retrieve the information?
If the latter than surely having the browser open would mean that people could see that information for themselves anyway? |
a) really .. do a http login to CF via the app and pick up the information, display it in the app with hyperlinks. It's like a mini browser, with a specific target and audience.
